Eight Days and Counting

October 31, 2016 Jerry King Comments 0 Comment

Only fools imagine that freedom means getting what one freedomhappens to desire.  Real freedom begins with obedience to a higher influence—a higher, finer energy within oneself.  What is higher in yourself?  That way of thinking about the question is the beginning of the answer—because it involves a real idea which has been handed down to humanity over thousands of years….At such a point you yourself will find the answer—not as a thought, but as an experience.

You will for a moment become the answer!  You will not only have a taste of real freedom; you will for a moment be freedom.

I Am Not I  by Jacob Needleman
